Contracted last August or September for $1.29/gallon. It was cheaper than the state average price. I am not sure what the cast price is right now. I would guess in the $1.50 - $1.60 range. I would like to find a nice propane powered tractor to use around the place. Propane is a lot cheaper than diesel or gasoline right now.

$16.00 for 5Gal seems way too high, that is $3.25/Gal.

Propane is a by-product of oil refining so it is cheaper the closer you are to refining areas. I think it is also cheaper in the Mid West because they can barge it up the Mississippi?? Dunno for sure. I know we have pretty high prices here, not as high as the North East though. High propane costs is why I switched to wood pellets and I haven't had a fill in over 4 years

id say our mid winter price is roughly twice what summer price is.
2.50 was about what i paid at the start of the winter to fill. id be happy with that price right now. i think i heard a friend say he paid little over $3 about 2 weeks ago or so.

What always gets me is the difference in price if you own or rent your tank. Huge differences I found a place that charges the same price if you rent or own the tank and I payed 2.6x something for propane last week. I only have a 120 gallon tank and the price drops based on the amount of propane that you buy.
